It’s time again to light the candles
And while we view the burning flames,
We think of all our beloved children
And hear the reading of their names.
All who are here have suffered heartbreak
We each have felt the crushing pain,
Our Children dead, forever gone
We can’t forget them, so we came.
To grasp a hand, to lend a shoulder
With helping friends we all can gain,
We feel support and understanding
And a hope that we can live again.
The candle light and remembrance
Affirms for us this truth so plain,
Our Children will live on in our hearts
And that love will always remain.
